  Of course these days you could add "posting on internet forums" to that list of occupations

  Before you judge a man, you should walk a mile in his shoes.

  That way, you're a mile away when you judge him, and you've got his shoes

  Guilt, Conscience and Catchphrases

  by Davey 33 in

  pleased to meet u all!

  i'm a newbie with a messed up head (thanks to all those wasted years).. my biggest problems are with guilt - i think its due to being raised as a jw.

  i feel guilty for almost everything - even when i know i haven't done anything wrong!

  join something maybe - I don't know what 'cause I don't know what you like or what you're good at - but sometimes it's nice to get involved with some 'worldlies' (who actually turn out to be splendid people mostly, despite what you've been told about them, though I guess you've worked that out already for yourself). Learn Spanish or the guitar (or even the spanish guitar), or join a choir/amateur drama group or something, maybe you'll meet some people you hit it off with. Sorry old bean, but them's the best suggestions I've got.

  Have a good new year in the West East Riding of Yorkshire,

  Smells that evoke memories...

  by LittleToe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  isn't it funny how certain smells can have a strong effect in evoking distant memories?.

  i was reminded of this when i just opened my desk drawer.

  a little earlier today i bought a local newspaper (which is unusual for me) and didn't have time to read it so i stuck it in the drawer.

  I bought me a brand new shiny cricket ball in honour of my fellow countrymen being not shyte at cricket for once, and the smell of that took me right back, to those far off days when I wasn't so shyte at cricket myself.

  Aww poor Crumplemet. Who's gonna torment the children in her neighbourhood now?

  Actually, I heard a rumour that she broke the leg whilst attempting the notoriously difficult and dangerous "helicopter position" with Mr. Crumpet. Is this true?

  edited to correct spelling of helicopter, from hellecopter!!!

  Don't forget to put your first line in a normal font,

  and then put your passive-agressive insult in italics on a separate line.

  Man I hate that almost as much as the ghastly eye-roller

  Half an hour gone and it's not looking too bad. Trescothick's luck is certainly in at the moment (dropped and edged over the slips and played&missed several times so far).

  McGrath and Lee opening the bowling for Oz, fit after all by the looks of it, and bowling really well. Bit of variable bounce in the pitch. Oh bugger!
